Halelu 116
1 KE aloha aku nei au ia Iehova, No ka mea, ua hoolohe mai oia i ka leo o ko'u nonoi ana.
I have given my love to the Lord, because he has given ear to the voice of my cry and my prayer.
2 No ka mea hoi, ua haliu mai kona pepeiao ia'u, Nolaila, e kahea aku au ia ia i ko'u mau la.
He has let my request come before him, and I will make my prayer to him all my days.
3 Hoopuni mai na hei o ka make ia'u, A loaa ia'u ka pilikia o ka malu o ka make, A loaa no hoi ia'u ka popilikia, a me ka ehaeha. (Sheol h7585)
The nets of death were round me, and the pains of the underworld had me in their grip; I was full of trouble and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
4 Alaila, kahea aku la au i ka inoa o Iehova; Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e Iehova, E hoopakele mai oe i ko'u uhane.
Then I made my prayer to the Lord, saying, O Lord, take my soul out of trouble.
5 He aloha ko Iehova, a he pono no; Ua lokomaikai no hoi ko kakou Akua.
The Lord is full of grace and righteousness; truly, he is a God of mercy.
6 Ke malama mai nei o Iehova i ka mea oluolu: Maule no wau, a nana no i hoola mai ia'u.
The Lord keeps the simple; I was made low, and he was my saviour.
7 E kuu uhane, e hoi oe i kou wahi e hoomaha'i, No ka mea, hana maikai mai o Iehova ia oe.
Come back to your rest, O my soul; for the Lord has given you your reward.
8 No ka mea, ua hoopakele mai oe i ko'u uhane i ka make, A me ko'u mau maka, i ka waimaka, A me ko'u mau wawae, i ka hina ana.
You have taken my soul from the power of death, keeping my eyes from weeping, and my feet from falling.
9 E holoholo no wau imua o Iehova, Ma ka honua, kahi o ka poe ola.
I will go before the Lord in the land of the living.
10 Manaoio no wau, nolaila au i olelo aku ai; Pilikia loa no nae au;
I still had faith, though I said, I am in great trouble;
11 I ko'u pioloke ana, olelo ae la au, He poe wahahee na kanaka a pau.
Though I said in my fear, All men are false.
12 Heaha ka'u e haawi aku ai ia oe, e Iehova, No kou lokomaikai mai a pau ia'u?
What may I give to the Lord for all the good things which he has done for me?
13 E hapai no wau i ke kiaha o ke ola, A e kahea aku i ka inoa o Iehova.
I will take the cup of salvation, and give praise to the name of the Lord.
14 E haawi no wau ia Iehova i ko'u mea i hoohiki ai, Imua o kona poe kanaka a pau.
I will make the offering of my oath to the Lord, even before all his people.
15 He mea minamina ia imua o Iehova, Ka make ana o kona poe haipule.
Dear in the eyes of the Lord is the death of his saints.
16 Aia hoi, e Iehova, owau no kau kauwa, O kau kauwa no wan, a o ke keiki hoi a kau kauwa wahine; Ua wehe mai oe i ko'u mau mea i paa ai.
O Lord, truly I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of her who is your servant; by you have my cords been broken.
17 E kaunmaha aku au ia oe i ka mohai mililani, A e kahea aku hoi i ka inoa o Iehova.
I will give an offering of praise to you, and make my prayer in the name of the Lord.
18 E haawi no wau ia Iehova i ko'u mea i hoohiki ai, Imua o kona poe kanaka a pau,
I will make the offerings of my oath, even before all his people;
19 Ma na kahua o ka hale o Iehova, Mawaena konu ou, e Ierusalema. E halelu aku oukou ia Iehova.
In the Lord's house, even in Jerusalem. Praise be to the Lord.
